The Thule basket I hve is called the "Play Pen" It was before the MOAB. It was silver aluminum. I painted it black. I think it is smaller then the MOAB.

I just got it and it was my firt use of it. I have Sea bags strapped in the pictures. I also used ruermaid tote oxes strapped in on the way over. either way worked good. I am still undecided on the look. I got some plans make it more intregrated with the rack system and not so high of of the canpy.

I am in the process of LineX'ing the roof between the Rails for the Rack System. This will help in keeping the roof clean and better protect the roof line in case small items scratched and or dropped on the roof. Hopefully reduce the chances of ruining the paint from splintering the fiberglass and scratching.

Wow, that's what a truck is for, I tell you what! Is that the Olympic mountains in WA state? I've not been up there in years, but I love it over there, would love to take a trip there next year with the family.
